Tottenham’s long search for a new boss is finally over after they appointed Nuno Espirito Santo.
It has been 72 days since they sacked Jose Mourinho on April 19 and a long and – at times chaotic – recruitment process has followed.
But the former Wolves boss has now got the job, signing a two-year deal at the north London club.
Nuno left Molineux at the end of last season and stays in the Premier League after incoming football managing director Fabio Paratici persuaded chairman Daniel Levy to give him the job.
Attention then turned to Nuno and, after Paratici convinced Levy of his credentials, he was announced on Wednesday night.
He has been available since May after his four-year stint at Wolves ended.
The 47-year-old took over in the summer of 2017 and immediately led Wolves out of the Championship before delivering two seventh-placed finishes in the Premier League.
They also made the Europa League quarter-final in 2019-20 but the loss of Diogo Jota and a serious injury to Raul Jimenez saw the midlands club slump to a 13th-placed finish last season.
